        Summary
        In response to proposed revisions to the Opium Act aimed at prohibiting entire groups of substances, this thesis addresses an issue with the classification of hard drugs in the Opiumwet; substances are evaluated and classified as hard drugs, but not reevaluated and reclassified as soft drugs. It is shown that there is an important reason for reclassification of LSD; the possibility of responsible recreational LSD. This thesis shows that when acting with due care, a specification of non-maleficence, responsible recreational LSD use is possible. It does so by building on recent scientific insights on LSD. Moreso, it shows what the case-specific conditions of due care are. It is then concluded that having conditions for responsible recreational LSD use should be reason for the re-evaluation of LSD as a hard drug.
